Chapter 1366: A Piece of Meat

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The ancient Turan people who had just transmigrated to the Other World faced a worse living environment than the Earthlings who had just transmigrated.

Their advantage was their cutting-edge metal smelting and supermagnet technology, as well as their stronger physique compared with the Earthlings.

Unfortunately, their spaceship was buried deep underground. More than 90% of the areas and facilities inside their spaceship were either integrated with the rocks or riddled with holes. They rusted and became completely ruined.

If the people of Dragon City had a city and a home to defend when they were faced with monsters that were threatening to attack them, the home of the ancient Turan people had become an empty tomb that could collapse at any time.

In order to survive, the ancient Turan people had to migrate to the ground and face all kinds of natural disasters and monsters directly without the protection of iron walls and tall buildings.

In order to improve the ultimate survival ability and endurance combat ability of individuals in harsh environments, the ancient Turan people gambled on the last resources and technology for the development of portable combat equipment for individual soldiers.

The final product developed was a full-coverage power armor molded by a ‘supermagnet.”

From then on, the Turan civilization entered the “armor era.”

The ancient Turan people were much more dependent on the power armor than the people of Dragon City.

‘The power armor was their second layer of skin, their strongest fortress, their mobile fortress, and their home, which they walked in alone in the dangerous wilderness. It was the home that they needed to survive and defend when they were attacked by magma, acid rain, and monsters at any time.

The “supermagnetic armor” made of supermagnetic materials, compared with individual equipment made of ordinary metal, also had multiple functions. It was able to resist impact, it could repair itself, and to a certain extent, they had the advantage of automatically executing simple commands and so on.

With the help of the supermagnetic armor, the Turan civilization was barely able to stand firm in that unfamiliar land.

However, the supermagnetic armor was not omnipotent.

The ancient Turan people still had two fatal problems that needed to be addressed.

‘The first was the ancient bacteria and viruses that filled the Other World.

To outsiders who did not have a corresponding immune mechanism, they were simply a heavy bomb that directly attacked cells and even the gene chain.

Just like when the people of Earth crossed over to the Other World, because of the soil erosion and the plague, it was very easy for them to become deformed or even become zombies that were neither human nor ghost.

The ancient Tulan people were also easily infected with the bacteria from another world, turning into all kinds of horrible and dehumanizing forms.

No matter how strong, flexible, or intelligent the supermagnetic armor was, it would not be able to protect every cell in its master’s body or even every gene chain.

Secondly, it was still a matter of resources.

Due to the special environment of Turan people’s home planet, all kinds of mineral veins were exposed to the air or buried in the shallow surface of the earth.

They were often crushed or thrown to the ground by the geological upheaval caused by the huge tidal force.

The Turan people who still lived on their home planet rarely worried about the problem of energy and raw materials.

In stark contrast to the metal smelting technology that surpassed the level of civilization, they were relatively weak in the technology of resource collection.

Unfortunately, the crystals and metal veins of Tulan were buried deep underground.

The ancient Tulan people, who had just transmigrated and lost a large number of people, were still in a daze. They had no ability to explore and exploit the resources hidden deep underground in Tulanze.

Without resources, no matter how powerful the super magnetic armor was, it was just a pile of scrap metal.

As a result, the Tulan civilization fell into a very awkward and dangerous situation.

‘When a fully-armed tactical team in super magnetic armor walked in the wilderness of Turan ZE, they were almost invincible.

Not many monsters could compete with such a tactical team.

Even the magma, floods, acid rain, and rocks triggered by the earthquake could not completely damage the super magnetic armor and hurt the flesh inside.

Even if there was a large-scale natural disaster or a large beast tide, the tactical team would be able to escape to the ‘Hope’in time.

However, when the ancient Turans tried to build large-scale settlements or towns on the surface, moving the entire population and civilization to the surface, the situation was completely different.

‘The Explorers in the super magnetic armor could move flexibly and fight whenever they wanted to.

However, the settlements and towns could not grow hundreds of feet and run away when danger came.

Once the settlements that had invested a large amount of resources were completed and a natural disaster or a beast tide occurred, the ancient Tulan people had no choice but to continue investing a large amount of resources to fight against the natural disasters and the Beast Tide.

‘The ‘fighting’and ‘consumption’were the things that the Tulan people could not bear the most at that time.

Therefore, after clearing out all the monsters within a radius of a few hundred miles, they spent a lot of resources to build and strengthen the settlements.

When the next rainy season arrived and everything recovered, they would be washed away by the surging flood and the Beast Tide.

The ancient Turan people had no choice but to flee back underground.

This happened again and again.

It was like an endless cycle of nightmares.

Under the high temperature and pressure of the underground environment, as well as the constant erosion of the rock layers, the hope was moving at a speed visible to the naked eye towards complete paralysis and collapse.

If they didnt find a way to solve the problem of the deadly bacteria and lack of resources, it wouldn’t be long before the Turan civilization lost the ability and courage to break out of the ground.

Perhaps, the Turan people would become pitiful creatures that would stay underground forever. In the dark environment, even their eyeballs would gradually deteriorate, and they would never be able to rebuild their civilization again.

Of course, miracles would only happen at the most critical moment.

Just as their civilization was on the brink of destruction.

The ancient Turan people discovered… a piece of meat in the deeper layer of rock beneath the hope.

“Wait

Chao Meng had been quietly receiving the massive amount of information transmitted through the voice.

‘Whether it was the soul-stirring journey of the hope in the vast sea of stars.

Or the horrifying scene when the space between the hope and the rock layer overlapped.

He did not interrupt the transmission.

Finally, he could not help but ask, A piece of meat?”

“That’s right, that is a very strange thing, We have never seen anything like it on Turan’s mother planet. Other than’a piece of meat’, there is no other word in Turan to describe it.”

As the voice spoke, it entered a vague picture into Meng Chao’s brain.

Although the picture had been transmitted countless times over the past ten thousand years, a lot of information had been consumed.

Meng Chao still managed to piece together the picture with his abundant imagination.

From Afar, it looked like a piece of rock embedded in an underground bubble. It was grayish-white in color, and its surface was covered with tiny holes that looked like honeycombs. Turbid and sticky liquid was seeping out of the tiny holes, it looked like a dewdrop condensed from a man-eating flower.

Upon closer inspection, one would discover that its surface was also covered with crisscrossing, meandering folds. Deep within the folds, there seemed to be a gully that was a hundred times larger than the surface.

At first, it looked like a lifeless inorganic object.

But very quickly, it realized that the person who recorded the scene was observing it.

It was also possible that it had been stimulated by the arrival of the ancient Tulan people.

The viscous liquid that covered its surface began to tremble, turning into something as thin as gauze that was indistinguishable from a halo or a fog.

No, Meng Chao suddenly realized that it was neither a halo nor a fog.

Instead, it was breathing.

The appearance of this object being woken up and breathing quietly activated the familiar yet unfamiliar feeling that Meng Chao had sealed in the deepest part of his memory.

Meng Chao felt that he had seen something similar before.

He remembered that it was the second Archean ruin in the hidden fog domain, which was the deepest part of the monster civilization’s final nest.

It was the main brain’of the monster civilization.

It was the debris left by the mother’that had once wreaked havoc in the universe and even destroyed the ‘ancient people‘in the universe in the Archean era after being bombarded by space-based orbital weapons!

The ‘mainframe’of the monster civilization was not lying!

After the ‘mother*of the past was blown into pieces by space-based orbital weapons, more than one debris was left!

“The fragment buried deep in the mountain range of monsters and the hidden fog domain, after hundreds of millions of years of hibernation and recovery, broke out of the ground again as the ‘main brain of the monster.

“However, the fragment in the underground of Tulan ze was discovered by the Tulan people who did not know the truth ten thousand years ago!

‘Judging from the picture, the fragment does not seem to have recovered the ability and form of the mother. It is still ina long hibernation and recovery. It is just a cluster of shivering cells that can not even maintain its cell structure. It is just an aggregation of some organic matter.

“However, no matter how harmless it looks, even if it has turned into a lifeless fossil, it is still a part of the ‘mother, or even a seed of the ‘mother’. It is one of the most dangerous existences in the entire foreign world!”

As expected, the voice told Chao Meng that the ancient Turan people had discovered this ‘piece of meat’during a routine exploration.

Because of the passage of the hope, a large space ripple was created, creating crisscrossing space folds.

The originally solid and dense rock layers beneath Turan ze were now filled with large amounts of empty bubbles and cracks that led to the space folds.

A large amount of the Hope’s wreckage was scattered among these empty bubbles and space folds.

During the rainy season on the surface, when the flood and beast tide were raging, the ancient Turan people would find it difficult to stand on the surface.

Organizing the “Underground exploration team’to search for mineral veins, spaceship wreckage, and heat energy sources became one of the main tasks of the transmigrators.

‘They found all kinds of strange things in the subterranean world.

However, when “This piece of meat“appeared in front of the exploration team members, it was still far beyond their expectations and imagination.

They had never seen anything so… indescribable, whether on their home planet or in another world..
